Trombonist
Chances are you can't watch music in New Orleans for too long before coming across trombonist Charlie Halloran. A fixture of the Crescent City's traditional jazz and Frenchmen Street scene, Charlie performs regularly with fan favorites Meschiya Lake and the Little Big Horns, the Shotgun Jazz Band, the Panorama Jazz Band, the Palmetto Bug Stompers and Tuba Skinny.
Named a rising star in Downbeat Magazine and recognized as one of New Orleans' top trombonists in Offbeat Magazine, Halloran also maintains a busy recording schedule, having lent his talents to Jon Cleary's Grammy winning album "Go Go Juice", as well as CDs released by U2, Rickie Lee Jones, John Boutte, Alex McMurray, Pokey LaFarge, Luke Winslow King, and countless traditional jazz bands. His own CD, "Charlie Halloran and the Quality 6", was nominated for best traditional jazz CD by Offbeat magazine in 2016 and listed in the top 50 Louisiana recordings that same year.
